Makes swimming laps a joy! [Posted on 2007-07-30] I LOVE THIS CASE!!! I have been an long distance runner for long enough that my knees are no longer happy with me. When my doctor told me to start cross training I was not happy. Swimming just a few laps felt like it took FOREVER! Now with this case I can easily do 100+ laps per day without the time dragging on. I love this case and would recommend it to anyone. I have never had any leaking problems. The only complaint I would have would be with the "arm band" that the waterproof case can go in. It is really big and gets in the way. I just put the pastic waterproof case right into my bathing suit while I swim and it works great.
An Unhappy Ending [Posted on 2007-09-16] I had a successful underwater test with a tissue in place of the ipod, I followed all the instructions, I checked my t-seal, I heard the "click" of the case closing, I swam two laps, and on the third one the music stopped because the case filled with water and my ipod had died.
Very disappointed [Posted on 2007-10-01] My H2O waterproof housing failed & flooded out after only 5 uses -- obviously ruining a $250 8GB Nano G2. I think the gasket (that comes off and/or moves out of place VERY easily) shifted as I closed the case allowing water by. The Otter box I had was a little larger, but it wouldn't close unless everything was properly in place -- I should have gone with what worked instead of what supposedly worked better (they advertise 3M depth versus 1M for the Otter box). By the way -- they don't cover your iPod in their warranty, which should tell you something.
Use the H2O headset, but stay away from this "waterproof" housing!!!
I like this case [Posted on 2007-10-25] I really do like this case. I have had no problems with the case. I took it camping this summer and took it swimming in a lake and had no problems with it. All I would say is be very CAREFUL whn closing the case to ensure that the t-seal does not move and allow water to get into it.
THE NANO IS DEAD!!! [Posted on 2007-10-26] Here's the deal... Bought this thing a month ago, unpacked it, put a tissue in it and put it underwater overnight, woke up to find a completely dry tissue after being submerged for 8 hours. So, I have been using it for about a month with my iPod Nano. Swimming laps, rockin' out, makes lap swimming fly by.
Then this morning I got in the pool at 5:30, put on my headphones and began to swim... by 5:32 my Nano was DEAD. I stopped and looked only to see my screen flashing, the case fill with water and my iPod die before my eyes (how dramatic). After looking at the case, everything looked normal! I am at a loss as to how water got into the thing, and the T seal was IN PLACE!
Anyway, I don't recommend this thing at all! Very disappointing! The only good thing about this is that it fried my little nano and not my huge 60 GB model that houses my entire music collection.
